Okay guys I'm here with another update. In this chapter, we go back to the Director. As you know, she has killed Dr. Mullins and basically ruined Elisabeth's life. In this chapter, you find out why. This is another filler. It's also a linking chapter. You'll see what I mean when I post Chapter 50. For those of you who keep reading these notes, the sequel is coming along great. I'm still not telling you anything, but you have to trust me on this: You'll love it. Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah. Well, here's Chapter 49 for all of you amazing people out there. Enjoy!
The Director was sitting in her office when she heard an echoing knock. She pressed a button on her desk and the door swung open.
Heather walked in, wearing a confused expression.
"Mom, you won't believe what I just heard." Heather said, approaching the desk.
The Director looked up at her daughter. "What did you hear?" she asked, pretending to be shocked. Of course the idiots who called themselves scientists couldn't keep their big mouths shut around her daughter. Oh well, Heather had to learn that sometimes being the Director meant that she had to do some unpleasant things. It was for the good of the world. It had to be done.
Heather sat down at the chair in front of her mother's desk and took a huge, deep breath. "They said you killed that woman, Dr. Mullins or whatever."
The Director nodded her head. "Yes, it's true."
Heather stared at her mother in complete shock. "Why?" she asked finally.
"It's quite simple. I had to. It was all part of the plan."
"But, I thought the plan was to lure the flock here by kidnapping Dr. Mullins. How did you end up killing her?" Heather asked.
The Director shook her head. "That was Plan A. I never actually thought that it was going to work. I only tried it in case there was any chance that I could avoid killing anyone. All along, I knew I was going to have to kill her."
"So then, what was the real plan?"
"You'll see soon." The Director replied. She wasn't going to tell Heather just yet. She might let something slip.
"Just one more question Mom." Heather said.
"Yes?" The Director asked.
"Am I going to have to do stuff like this when I take over?"
"Yes. You'll be faced with many important decisions. I trust that, when the time comes, you'll make the right ones. You need to work for the greater good. You'll probably feel guilty the first time you have to kill someone, but you will see that it's all for a good cause." The Director finished her speech.
"I don't know if I'm ready for that." Heather replied seriously.
"You will be one day."
Heather nodded, stood up, walked out of the office, and shut the door behind her.
The Director went back to her work.
She was proud of Heather. In the last couple of years she had grown up. She was starting to think more about her future. She was going to make a great Director one day. The Director wasn't worried about her daughter anymore. Heather would have an easy job after the Director's plan was set in place.
Everything is set in place. All the pawns are doing exactly what they are supposed to do. Elisabeth's emotions should be too hard for her to handle soon. She'll be mine soon enough. Then, the rest of the flock will fall.
That's it for this chapter. I hope you liked it. It was another short chapter, but I think it was pretty good. Well, keep reading and please, please leave some reviews. Updates are coming at you fast!
